Source: Catherine E. Cosca, NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, submitted these 
	data to NCEI via email on January 15, 2021.  

Action(s): The original data and metadata files were transferred to the directory
        of data/0-data/. NCEI personnel extracted the longitude and latitude data,
        and plotted a sampling station map. Both the generated longitude latitude
        file and the sampling station map were saved in the directory of about/.
        NCEI personnel also converted the .xls files to .csv format, and saved them in
        the data/1-data/ directory.

Files:
about/
This directory contains files created by NCEI staff, email correspondence,
and other 'negotiable' information between NCEI staff and the data provider.

0225428_lonlat.txt - 
  Contains sample locations for these data.  Each row contains the geographical
  position where these data were collected (longitude in the left column and
  latitude in the right column, both in degrees).  NCEI may have corrected 
  geographic positions that seemed to be in error when generating this file.  
  However, NCEI did not change the original data files under the directory 
  data/0-data/.
